the spirit of the national MLK Day of Service, from Tuesday, January 22
- Tuesday, February 7, BLSA will be holding a food drive on behalf of
TABLE, Inc., a 503(c)(3) non-profit hunger relief organization based in
Carrboro. TABLE focuses exclusively on childhood hunger. Every week
TABLE puts healthy food, including fresh produce, directly into the
hands of over 150 Chapel Hill & Carrboro elementary school children
who would otherwise go hungry on weekends and other times of the year
when free school meals are unavailable.

BLSA representatives will
be on-hand collecting the following food items in the Rotunda during
